Conductor SIRTOA

[Karim188 0]

I applied for Conductor for the Staten Island Railway in December of last year and my application status says Passed Prescreening, does that mean i'll be receiving an email or a call for an interview soon?

I applied in July and my account says the same thing so I emailed them. They told me that our applications now get sent to a recruiter for a more thorough review. If our applications pass this evaluation then we may be contacted. So one more step to get through before the chance for an interview.

i herd it could take up to six months before they start calling anyone

Hopefully we both get called within the next few months. Good luck.

Hey Guys. Just wanted to see if you were called yet? I applied for Conductor too, but I'm stuck on the passed pre screening.

I applied for this back on December 31st the first day then redid my Application on Jan 3rd because I missed something on my first. My application has been submitted that day and my application status is on applied.I hope to hear back soon as well

I applied to the Conductor posting in January of 2018, then again for the posting from last week. They're both on passed pre screening.  I'm sure yours will go from applied to passed pre screening soon. It's just frustrating. But Railroads are very slow due to the number of applicants. Hopefully we both get called in to Livingston soon.

What is pre-screening?

[Bear10307 0]

It's the application status for BSC Recruitment.

Oh, so that's a good sign right?

[Bear10307 0]

Oh definitely. It's a step in the right direction. Now it's just a waiting game to see if they call. I have applications from early last year that are still on passed pre screening. But we have done everything they requested of us and there is nothing else to do, other than wait. Hopefully we all get called soon. I have a good feeling that we will.

I applied for the recent Staten conductor one but applied for a MNRR one I think a year and half ago. Which one do you think I'll get called on lmao

[Lawrence St 1,163]

Actually I take that back, the MNRR one still says submitted but the SIRR one says pre-screening. Darn

Just from reading other posts, I think there is a high probability that we will both be called by 2022. Lol. But we have to remain optimistic and ready for the call. As for your application with Metro North, I think they will call sooner than the Staten Island Railway. Tons of jobs there, large crew base, and multiple routes.

Yeah but it hasnt updated since last year. It's dosen't say "Passed Pre-screening".

But apparently I heard a rumor that they're going faster then before with the conductor hiring process for SI because of the incoming R211S order. Anyone confirm this? 

[Bear10307 0]

If they go back to a two man crew with the new equipment, then we're definitely in good shape.  

[Lawrence St 1,163]

So since I'll be getting a call from SIR In the future, what's the job like? How many round trips is there in an average day?

[Bear10307 0]

Have any of you heard anything?  Nothing to report on my end.

Nada, zip. Given how small SIR is you think they'd call you fast

[Bear10307 0]

I hearya'. It is quite frustrating though. They could call tomorrow, or two years from now. I'll definitely keep you posted if I hear anything.

Do SIR conductors have to go through a test as well similar to B/O and T/O?

Anyone?

I saw this open up today or yesterday but according to them you have take a book examinations first and if u fail then that's it it's not like the train operator or conductor where you take the first test get your list number then get call then take the exams with the signals and so forth 

 

[Mohamed 0]

It's like training they give the books about the rules and so on and you just gotta pass them 

[Lawrence St 1,163]

I dont know why it re-opened back up when most of us are still on the "passed pre-screening" stage of the application.
